So after the rain showers passed this afternoon the wife, myself, and two friends gased up and rode to a bike night at a somewhat local mall. With a lot of Harelys dominating the street, there was a few Hondas that stood out and even a bike called a Ural. so without further ado the important stuff .... PICS

Great pics! That's a sweet looking Magna.

The Ural's a Russian-made bike, right? I think the story was that they were originally designed for use in WWII and they've been a popular one for restorationists. But I believe a company was selling new, modern versions of the bike.

Yep, the Ural is actually a copy of the old BMW R75.  The Ruskies got a hold of one and basically reverse engineered it into the Ural.  From what I've heard they are actually bullet proof bikes, may not win any shows, but much better than a Yugo.

That NH S looks familiar....

I thought it did,  I saw it for sale a while ago, but didn't have the money or permission!  Hap1  Nice to see some real pics of it since all I had seen were some crummy, low res craigslist pics.  Looks like a great time Cmyers, thanks for sharing.  Maybe next time you could let me know and I'll ride down that day and we can go to bike night.  friday

Ari, the largest bike night around here happens every Wednesday night at a place called Quaker Steak and Lube, there is easily 300+ bikes on a regular basis. You are welcome anytime, we dont have a lot of room, but with advance notice we could make some bed space for a night. The photos are from a bike night that happens every 3rd Saturday. There are also some great weekend bike events going on throughout the summer if you are interested in those.
